Angles X and Y are supplementary. Angle X is 3 times the measure of angle Y. What is the measure of angle X?

45°
60°
120°
135°

Respuesta :

Answer:

135 on edge

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of the angle X will be 45 degrees. Then the correct option is A.

What is the solution of the equation?

The solution of the equation means the value of the unknown or variable.

Angles X and Y are supplementary.

Supplementary angle - Two angles are said to be supplementary angles if their sum is 180 degrees.

Then the equation will be

X + Y = 180°      …1

Angle X is 3 times the measure of angle Y. Then the equation will be

X = 3Y

Substitute the value of X in equation 1, then the equation will be

3Y + Y = 180

4Y = 180

Y = 45°

Substitute the value of the Y in equation 1, then the equation will be

3X + 45 = 180

        3X = 180 – 45

        3X = 135

          X = 135 / 3

          X = 45°

Then the measure of the angle X will be 45 degrees.

Then the correct option is A.
